### 3/5 — Not perfect

*2026-03-31, version 6.9.10*

Too many celebrities stated and what the heck has happened to the crossword, the questions are almost as hard as the answers to work out.

### 4/5 — Daily Paper for less

*2026-02-14, version 6.9.10*

Used to buy The Sun newspaper paper edition but found the digital version whilst exactly the same as the paper version was cheaper.  Plus doing the crossword every day was easier, even though some days it did not load correctly, which is why I only give it 4 stars.

### 5/5 — Good

*2026-01-08, version 6.9.8*

If you like The Sun, this is for you. Read the paper everyday and save yourself a trip to the shop. Puzzles section is really good too. It’s great to have when travelling.

### 5/5 — The Sun

*2025-12-23, version 6.9.8*

Great paper, especially the digital edition….easy to download each morning, no fuss and always a good read at a great price.

### 1/5 — Very Disappointed

*2025-12-11, version 6.9.8*

Text on pages very poor quality when zoomed in. Pages on centre spreads not joined (i.e on the horse racing) so can't be read properly. "Come on The Sun, these are basics!" Who's in charge of making the PDF's, this is bad, will be cancelling. 👎🏻

### 4/5 — Nice app but changing subscription has to be done over the phone which is annoying

*2025-12-02, version 6.9.8*

Nice app but changing subscription has to be done over the phone which is annoying in this day and age.

### 2/5 — Problems never get sorted very quickly

*2025-11-05, version 6.9.8*

Loved the app but just cancelled subscription because of news updates have not updated for nearly 4 weeks even though they know about it.

### 5/5 — Mr

*2025-10-03, version 6.9.8*

I’ve had the app for years I love it 😊👍

### 5/5 — Good but a hiccup

*2025-09-14*

The app is great and I can access the digital paper where ever I am even when on holiday abroad. My only slight gripe and I don’t know if other users get this but on my monthly renewal date ( I.e. they take my subscription) I have the problem of accessing the paper, in the end I delete the app, keep the subscription and go to the App Store and reinstall the app which then works fine. It’s slightly frustrating but not that a big deal

### 5/5 — The sun Scottish

*2025-05-29, version 6.9.3*

Usually easy to download and read but sometimes have to reinstall to work
